Raw Veggie Burger

Posted by Avena Originals on Tuesday, April 11th, 2017

A dehydrator is required for these raw veggie burger patties. Hemp seed hearts give these veggie burgers their moist texture. Although this recipe has a lot of ingredients, it’s actually quick to prepare since it’s pretty much “throw and go.”

Add all dry ingredients (except hemp hearts and chopped veggies) to your food processor. Process until well mixed and almost flour-like. Transfer into a large bowl.

Add remaining ingredients (hemp hearts and chopped veggies) to the mixture in large bowl. Stir with a spoon until thoroughly combined.

Add water and lemon juice. Stir again.

Line dehydrator trays with parchment paper.

NOTES: First, the patty. Raw veggie burger patties are usually made from a savoury concoction of vegetables and a binding agent (like flaxseed, for example). The mixture is moulded into patties and dehydrated in a dehydrator, which results in a delicious, hearty patty. When preparing your patties, be mentally prepared that they will be a lot smaller after dehydration as much of the moisture is removed during the dehydration process.

The bun? You can either make a bread or cracker by dehydrating them or do what I do. Wrap the patty in a crisp leaf or romaine lettuce and you’re good to go.
